Not wishing to be parted from my dearly beloved sat-TV on holiday in Spain recently, I decided to take some kit along with me

Actually, I took these pictures at a huge fiesta which was (obviously...) being uplinked live.

I risked life and limb to dodge between the members of the OB crew - who were waving their fists at me furiously - and managed to snaffle these neat snaps.

As it turned out, it wasn't the satellite boys I had to worry about - I got a far more serious rebuke from my family for being such a sad barsteward.
